What happens when a atom gains an electron?
When an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged and forms an anion. This process is known as reduction, and it can change the chemical properties of the atom by affecting its reactivity and ability to form bonds.
When an atom gains an electron it?
becomes an anion. Negatively charged.
How does an atom becomes Negatively charged?
An atom becomes negatively charged when it receives an electron from another atom. In other words, if there are more electrons than protons in an atom, it becomes negatively charged.
What soes an atom become when it losses or get an electron?
If it looses an electron, it becomes positively charged. If it gains one, it becomes negatively charged. These charged species are collectively called ions.
What change does an atom have if it gains an electron?
If an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged because it now has more negatively charged electrons than positively charged protons. This results in the atom becoming an anion.
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called?
an ion. If a chlorine atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-) and if it loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged chlorine cation (Cl+).
An atom that gains an electron gains what type of ion?
an atom that gains an electron becomes a negative ion, called an anion.
When an atom gains an electron to be stable it becomes?
Electrically Charged or Negatively charged
When an atom gains an electron the atom becomes an ion that?
yes...on gaining an electron, the atom becomes an anion i.e. negatively charged ion.
When an atom gains one or more electron it does what?
while an atom that gains electrons and becomes negatively charged is known as an anion
An atom that gains an electron?
An atom that has gained an electron has a negative charge and is called an anion.
